Hate "Da Bears"!

Spent the weekend in Minneapolis and had another great time! Weather was great!!

I attended John Randle's ring of honor signing at Mall of America on Saturday. Several other former Vikings players were there as well. Also made a quick trip to The Minnesota Vikings locker and took pictures of the Mall before attending the signing.
